Tommy Minori has one rule at Eastview Academy, the most prestigious school in Brazil: don't get noticed. A scholarship kid with a past he'd rather forget, he survives on caffeine, good grades, and the stolen hours he spends with Matty Armani, the star of the basketball team, in the empty halls after dark, because Matty isn't ready for anyone to know.
Then, one night, they hear a noise in the biology lab.
Through the glass, they watch a classmate die.
By morning, the school is calling it a suicide. By noon, Tommy gets a message from an unknown number:
I saw you, Tommy. Both of you.
Now the killer is watching, and wants something. If Tommy and Matty go to the police, they have to explain what they were doing at school that night, and they'd lose everything they're hiding. If they stay silent, the messages keep coming. And the only adults Tommy trusts, a teacher who seems kind, a father who happens to be a cop, may not be as safe as they seem.
As the threats get closer to home, Tommy and Matty start digging into Eastview's polished history: a century of tradition, a founder nobody questions, and a secret that someone is willing to kill to protect. And the deeper they go, the clearer it gets that the truth isn't the worst thing they could find.
It's who has known it all along.
A dark young adult mystery-thriller with a slow-burn, secret romance at its heart.
